   @thomasfuchs If it’s Win 11 it doesn’t surprise me that the alternative is faster, since the Windows 11 start menu is in fact a React Native app… 🤷🏼♂️🙄

     @fmarini @thomasfuchs Yeah, even Windows 10 Start Menu was noticeably slower to open than 3rd party alternatives, and 11 made it way worse (lost count how many times I've seen it open only to show a version number in the corner, but no content for 5-10 seconds).

     @thomasfuchs yep (not sure if it’s the whole start menu, or just the “recommended” section, but still)
